BLACK DREAMER

 

Who locked the door; who broke the knob?

The Black man's dream gradually slaughtered in his throat.

What was his fault;

His ambition or His Black blood by default?

What a coincidence,

That he walks on the strength and flaws of his antecedents!

A fertile land,

Bearing dead Children!

Saddle your Bed! Call out to your Dreams!

Oh Black seed, who had robbed you of the Peak?

Retrace the fading lines and paint the pictures again,

Until your dream is the end of your sleep.
